Black Asian Coalitions Across Generations

Black Asian Coalitions Across Generations is a two day exploration of how artistic and organizing practices have bonded the Black and Asian American community and inspire their mutual collaboration, coalition-building, and liberation. In the midst of ongoing historical and contemporary racialized violence that impacts & divides both communities, this event celebrates and imagines the films, arts, and political organizing emerging from the union of these two communities.

Through a public panel and discussion featuring artists, historians and organizers across multiple generations, followed by a reception, and an intimate screenwriting workshop (the following day) we hope to plant seeds of dialogue, celebration and collaboration toward shared futures that support our collective safety, liberation and wellbeing.

This is an in person event with a virtual zoom live stream. Space is limited for in-person guests so please only reserve an in-person ticket if you are likely able to come.
